Truck Festival has just announced its second wave of artists joining the lineup for 2026!
Among the latest music additions are Divorce, Picture Parlour, Sigma and Morgan Seatree, alongside Arkayla, GANS, Oppidan, Finn Forster, My First Time, Tom A. Smith, Punchbag and Creeping Jean. Also joining the bill are The Slates and Lizzie Esau, further strengthening a line-up that continues to spotlight some of the UK’s most exciting emerging acts.
The announcement also confirms a special moment in Truck Festival history: the final-ever appearance of Barrioke featuring Shaun Williamson, marking the end of a long-running fan favourite that has become synonymous with the festival’s late-night revelry. The farewell set will sit alongside a characteristically playful programme of entertainment capturing Truck’s irreverent spirit, including performances from The Ogertones, Tragedy and Shaunia Twain, plus the return of Pub Antics presented by Terry Vega.
Beyond the music stages, Truck’s comedy offering is once again set to be a major draw. The newly announced Laugh Out Loud programme features Reginald D Hunter, Ivo Graham, Emmanuel Sonubi, John Kearns, Tom Stade, Glenn Moore and Sam Nicoresti, with additional comedians still to be revealed.
These new additions join a thriving 2026 line-up already boasting some of the biggest names in indie and alternative music. Headliners and major acts include The Maccabees, Two Door Cinema Club and CMAT, alongside The Libertines, The Wombats, The Vaccines, Kaiser Chiefs and Primal Scream.
Elsewhere across the weekend, festivalgoers can expect performances from English Teacher, The Royston Club, Rizzle Kicks and The K’s, plus rising artists including Keo and Florence Road. Circa Waves, Everything Everything, The Cribs and Friendly Fires also feature prominently, alongside Lottery Winners, Vanessa Carlton and Willie J Healey. Further highlights include Westside Cowboy, Black Honey, Radio Free Alice and Getdown Services, with many more artists still to be announced.
Often described as “your favourite artists’ favourite festival,” Truck Festival has built a reputation for its uniquely welcoming atmosphere, combining major live performances with comedy, late-night antics and a strong sense of community. The 2026 edition promises another weekend of standout sets, laugh-out-loud moments and lasting memories.
With more than 90% of tickets already sold, the final allocation is now available via the festival website.
